Miami Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel has quickly become a viral sensation, not for his coaching strategies, but for debuting a fresh new look that has the internet buzzing.
On Wednesday, McDaniel addressed the media to provide an update on star wide receiver Tyreek Hill’s thumb injury. In typical McDaniel fashion, he offered a detailed explanation about Hill’s status, emphasizing the importance of caution as the team prepares for the regular season.
“Tyreek could practice today,” McDaniel began, “but there are also times when, because of the timing and where their bodies are at, it could put them at risk for further injury. From a medical standpoint, you’re just trying to let something cool down so you don’t have something happen at the expense of regular season games. So he’ll be around, but he won’t be participating in the team portion of practice.”
While his comments on Hill were certainly of interest to Dolphins fans, it was McDaniel’s appearance that truly stole the show. Sporting a new look, McDaniel’s fresh style didn’t go unnoticed by those tuning in, and the internet quickly lit up with reactions. Fans and social media users couldn’t resist sharing their thoughts, and as is often the case, the jokes and memes started pouring in.
